Low prevalence of Borna disease virus 1 (BoDV-1) IgG antibodies in humans from areas endemic for animal Borna disease of Southern Germany. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2019
Borna disease virus-1 (BoDV-1) was recently discovered as cause of severe and often fatal encephalitis in humans. BoDV-1 is known to cause neurological disease in horses and sheep mainly in South and Central Germany.

Structural and biophysical characterization of the Borna disease virus 1 phosphoprotein. [PDF]

Acta Crystallogr F Struct Biol Commun, 2023
The phosphoprotein is an essential component of the replication complex in bornaviruses. Here, using X‐ray crystallography, the structure of the phosphoprotein from Borna disease virus 1 is presented and its flexibility in solution is characterized.Bornaviruses are RNA viruses with a mammalian, reptilian, and avian host range.

Development of a nonhuman primate model for mammalian bornavirus infection. [PDF]

PNAS Nexus, 2022
Until recently, it was assumed that members of the family Bornaviridae could not induce severe disease in humans. Today, however, Borna disease virus 1 (BoDV-1), as well as the more recently emerged variegated squirrel bornavirus 1 (VSBV-1), are known as

ICTV Virus Taxonomy Profile: Bornaviridae. [PDF]

J Gen Virol, 2021
Members of the family Bornaviridae produce enveloped virions containing a linear negative-sense non-segmented RNA genome of about 9 kb. Bornaviruses are found in mammals, birds, reptiles and fish.

New World camelids are sentinels for the presence of Borna disease virus

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 2, Page 451-464, March 2022., 2022
Abstract Borna disease (BD), a frequently fatal neurologic disorder caused by Borna disease virus 1 (BoDV‐1), has been observed for decades in horses, sheep, and other mammals in certain regions of Europe. The bicoloured white‐toothed shrew (Crocidura leucodon) was identified as a persistently infected species involved in virus transmission.

Post COVID‐19: a solution scan of options for preventing future zoonotic epidemics

Biological Reviews, Volume 96, Issue 6, Page 2694-2715, December 2021., 2021
ABSTRACT The crisis generated by the emergence and pandemic spread of COVID‐19 has thrown into the global spotlight the dangers associated with novel diseases, as well as the key role of animals, especially wild animals, as potential sources of pathogens to humans.

Exemplary investigations of squirrels and shrews as relevant virus reservoir hosts [PDF]

, 2020
Rodents and other small mammals, such as shrews, are important reservoirs for numerous zoonotic pathogens. In addition, also various non-zoonotic agents such as polyomaviruses and herpesviruses have been described in these species. The development and
